World War I: An Annotated BibliographyMilitary Newspapers in the Microform CollectionDuring World War I the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA), in a partnership with selected city newspapers, published free weekly editions for Army, Navy, and Marine Corps posts, bases, and camps throughout the United States. Entitled Trench and Camp, these special editions provided soldiers with war news, camp news, sports, and entertainment. In addition, each Trench and Camp was a channel of communication to the troops from the President, Congress, and War Department. The Library of Congress microfilmed only those issues that were deposited according to its agreement with U.S. Army and the associated newspaper publishers. The years of coverage include 1917, 1918, and part of 1919. The following list provides the name of the military camp, the state in which the camp was located, and the Library of Congress microfilm call number.
In addition to the various editions of Trench and Camp, the following World War I military newspapers are also available at the Library of Congress on microfilm:
